See the Frenchy conclusion!

It’s another Xena Let’s Play! Now with more wolf-tossing action!

Special 217 Baywatch 2017 (VLOG)

  • 2017-05-25T04:00:00Z20m

Was the new Baywatch movie a flop or a save?

Believe it or not, it’s a spooky ghost episode!

Ghost hunts, cursed bakeries, and sexy Jersey Devils!

A man receives a newspaper from the future that warns him about a deadly old lady. Also witches.

Oscar-nominated, Emmy Award-winning costume designer Jean-Pierre Dorléac talks with me about Quantum Leap, funny behind the scenes stories, the work that goes into costumes, and his book, The Naked Truth!

At the start of the Star Trek triple feature, we take a look at a TNG ep where Dr. Crusher falls in love with a candle in Space Scotland.

An ebay purchase led me to a chance discovery–negatives of Quantum Leap’s lost ending!

Quark gets a sex change and hilarity ensues?

Behold the human evolutionary future: giant salamanders!

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in. Charmed continues in comic form with our terrible trio and some really, really bad art.

You kids ever heard of a little movie called The Blair Witch Project?

In the premiere of our Charmed 2018 podcast, the Charmed Ones take on Mr. Freeze and the patriarchy. Did it hold up to the original?

Anthony Perkins stars in an unsold pilot about a horror writer whose dead wife rises from the grave. Comedy!

The women (not girls) find themselves in a Liar Liar situation. Meanwhile, we continue to dive deep into Macy's heritage. Did their mother sell her for drug money? It's just like Brexit.

David Hasselhoff visits the Psycho house to investigate a killer in a gorilla suit. Could custodian Norman Baines be behind this?

Maggie wants to throw a sweet Halloween party but the Harbinger of Evil is totally throwing off her groove. Meanwhile, Macy’s lab buddies do some Halloween science and we meet the elusive sorori-lawyer. Back off, white man!

Sure Angela might kill a lot of people, but what happened to women supporting women?! Also the Elders are...y'know.

Why exactly are two women fighting over Galvin, a living Ambien? Just how awful is Mel? Was their mother secretly evil? And is Harry stuck in the worst episode of Quantum Leap? In the original timeline, all of these questions were answered.

Today we give thanks for Jack of All Trades, Bruce Campbell’s adventure show where he plays football against Napoleon Bonaparte.

Lucy is hit with Sub Rosa pheromone, Macy sees Miss Cleo to inquire about her origins, and Galvin takes framed photos of himself to his birthday party. Were we drunk on wine coolers watching this?

Hipster Torgo shows up at the house for help and Parker reveals his horrible secret…he’s got diabetes! Things have taken a turn for the worse in New Charmed.

All the craziest, funniest moments from the delightful Tyra Banks!

Maggie can’t decide between an internship with a dating app or EvilCo, Mel joins a group of rogue witches, and Macy wears mom jeans. Phelan insists on including the terrible Modelland theme song.

I was rooting for you, we were all rooting for you, HOW DARE YOU?!

We actually enjoyed an episode?! In this mid-season finale, it's laughs aplenty as the women (not girls) try to throw a Christmas party, Parker attempts to steal their Charmed DNA, Macy wears (pants), and Galvin passes out on the toilet. Jingle hell is other people, Archie.

What was this movie?! I look at a film that was severely misadvertised and I’m still baffled.

Harry’s stuck in Hell-jail, Galvin broke his leg and gained a personality, and Maggie fake cries because Parker wants to know if she has the lecture notes. How much recap is too much recap? What is a good portmanteau for Macy/Galvin? All I know is it smells like white privilege in here.

Maggie joins a singing ensemble with a sassy teacher who wants to kill the audience softly with his song. They encounter their greatest enemy, Jean-Ralphio. An outfit so bonkers appears I have to pause for like five minutes to recover.

Donna Martin might have graduated, but can I manage to do a makeup video?

Macy digs for answers to her (dead) past and meets the K-Mart-keeper, Maggie goes to a party and orders some margs, and Harry is sad because he didn’t have a cooler son. But perhaps the biggest twist of all…Lucy is a sleeper agent!

Maggie begins her transformation into full Phoebe One, Mel snoozes through the ep, and Macy and Galvin see a Miss Cleo about a dolphin.

Macy brings her favorite TV characters to life and I desperately try to think of an appropriate episode title that doesn’t relate to Maggie’s, er…enLIGHTening situation.

In 2011, supermodel Tyra Banks wrote a self-insert young adult novel about a...dystopian fashion world or...something? The result was completely insane, which I in turn spent nearly a year reading. Here is my descent into madness, abridged to just the parts where I might have been funny or insightful*
